I must say, the peach
trees really took off. They were fast
growing. They aren't that big when they ship, really. Some of my tress were only as big as a twig, and others were about 4' tall, depending on what they were. (Other than my cherry
tree) I had the best luck with the ones I bought, rather than the 10 free ones they send you when you join. But some of them did well too. They are tiny when they come, I won't lie. I was surprised at how small some were. I think a toothpick would've been fatter..lol. Your best bet if you go with them, is try to find out what's a native one to your area, they do the best. (My hawthornes were tiny, but are doing really well, since they are native, they took off!) Also, they have on thier website, all thier
trees listed, they will tell you what
zones they are good for (and will ask for your zip code & tell you your
zone, and offer those
trees to you to look at), and if you click on more information, it will tell you things like, average shipping size, average growth rate, avg. full grown size, what kind of soil it prefers, light it prefers, watering, etc.. it's pretty nice. The ship when dormant, so you'd likely get a fall delivery if you were to order anything now.
